Traded Max Heath [Traded to Melbourne for 2027 R4 (Melb)]

[The Nostradamus]

the 22 year old ruck who has played 4 games this year and out of contract
could be part of the ruck merry go round with TDK coming to the saints

he is now 3rd in line for a ruck spot could look for opportunities to be second in line for a ruck spot at like dees, north, crows etc

dees have expressed interest

 

[Tasmanian saint]

Would be fourth in line if Marshall stays after watching dodson in the second half of the vfl season kid was killing it they will definitely want to get games into him

good call dodson looks promising

you are well stocked now in rucks assuming marshall stays

 

[Atomboy]

Yet to hit his straps, would be a good pickup for someone.

 

[XhazzafootyX]

Late pick or DFA?

Got a lot of future 4th about it

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Would take him for a late pick if they wont release Marshall.

 

[projectv]

Has been on our list for multiple years without getting a game. I think most fans assumed he was going to be delisted before he debuted this year. Proved a few people wrong with his games this season, was pretty good. He was also decent when playing forward too. Would be a good pickup for a few different clubs.

If Marshall stays, he goes. If Marshall leaves, he'll stay.

I hope we keep Moose but you can only dominate in the VFL for so long.

 

[Broski]

I think his future at the club purely depends on what happens with Marshall. If he is traded to the Cats (or anywhere else), then Heath would likely be the back-up/third ruck. Feel like Heath will have to wait until October.

If Sam Draper chooses the Crows over the Lions I hope we are looking at Max Heath as a backup plan.

He’s got a lot to offer I reckon, would be nice to see him get a run elsewhere if Saints aren’t a fit.

 

[Veer Right]

Should be on an AFL list and is very capable as a forward / pinch hit ruck. Massive frame makes him a hard match up. I want him to stay.

 

[juss]

He'd be perfect for our list. Nankervis probably has a year or so left, he'd be a regular 2nd ruck and not far off being a long term 1st ruck.

Who is your current backup ruck?

 

[juss]

Who is your current backup ruck?

A Cat B rookie in the VFL who has never debuted and Noah Balta pinch hits as relief but would never be a full time AFL ruck.

Ryan?

 

[juss]

Ryan?

Not sure he survives on the list much longer tbh

What's his contract status? You are very thin for middle aged talls so I would assume he stays.

Contracted to 2027

So yeah Ryan would be their back up ruck

 

[marcus1232]

Has got career backup written all over him and that's not an insult.

Will likely be on the outer especially if Marshall stays but even if he doesn't he is already behind Dodson on the pecking order I would think.

Probably a fourth round pick at best would get it done

 

[Drunkcat]

Only about 10 clubs looking for a ruckman, so he doesn't have to worry about being on a list.

 

[KAYNE]

Dees are very keen. With Campbell finishing up this year and Verral still a bit off he will be 2nd choice at Melbourne. Depending on whether Melbourne look to play Johnson or Heath as the 2nd Ruck. Van Rooyen does not want to be 2nd ruck and wants to focus on playing forward.

205cm, can chew gum and walk at the same time.

He'll get another 3 years in the system easily.

We will def be keen and seem to have already expressed interest. Hopefully we can get something done.
